BiG Challenge 11 Awards event

The BiG Challenge 11 Awards event, held at the Holiday Inn Royal Victoria on 28 March, celebrated the best teams of this year's competition.

David Grey MBE, Chairman of BiG Challenge was joined on stage by sponsors and special guests to award prizes in several categories to 11 teams from schools around Sheffield.

We are delighted to announce that, in a competition for students of all ages from Sheffield secondary schools, two Y8 teams from ND reached the finals. Students had to run a business from October to January and produce a final report detailing their activities.

“Humid Busters” won Most Innovative Product. The judges were impressed by their simple but effective design. “HAH Jewellery” received Highly Commended in the overall competition for a very high standard of work in all areas.

We would like to thank our Enterprise Coordinator; Liz Yoxhall, Sheffield Hallam University Business School students and the parents, friends and school mentors of all teams who took part this year for all their help and support.
